Just as the cable television newsmen were bemoaning the unwillingness of the Republicans to compromise, Boehner came forward to suggest strongly that the Grand Bargain was a very real possibility since his Republicans in Congress would now be willing to accept some tax increases to produce revenues to balance off the reductions in spending on entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare.
And, as I have noted in previous posts, even now the stock is not exactly a raging bargain by most statistical measures: Facebook trades for about 8x forward revenues, compared to 5x for Google, or less than 4x for Apple.
